Han Bin did not know whether to laugh or cry. "That's so explosive."
"This family has always been unreasonable. Now that he's injured, it's even more difficult to deal with him. I'm also worried about it now," Guo Tianxu said.
"Do you know who injured the boy's father?"
"The conflict happened when it was getting dark. The lights in the courtyard were dim, so the victim did not see who kicked him." Guo Tianxu handed a cigarette to Han Bin.
"What about the cameras?"
"There aren't any cameras in an old neighborhood."
"Do you have any witnesses?" Han Bin took out a lighter and lit Guo Tianxu's cigarette.
Guo Tianxu took a puff of his cigarette. "The lighting was bad, and the situation was chaotic. The victim didn't even know who kicked him, so how could anyone else have seen it? As for the suspects, they all said that it had nothing to do with them."
"How many people did it?"
"A total of thirteen people fought. The boy's parents were one side, and the other eleven were the owners of the car," Guo Tianxu explained.
"Are there any footprints on the victim's crotch?"
"No footprints. It might have been kicked by the instep. We can only temporarily detain them. Now the family of the car owners are in the lobby asking for them. Don't you think I'm worried?"
"Master, calm down. That's the job of the police station," Han Bin said.
"You make it sound easy. You're a criminal police officer now. Give me an idea. How can we catch the suspect who kicked the boy's father?"
"There are no witnesses, no evidence, and no video. We can only let the suspects identify each other. Maybe we can catch them," Han Bin analyzed.
"I think it's difficult. Let's not talk about whether the car owners saw who kicked him in the chaos. Even if they did, they might not say anything. After all, they're all neighbors. They'll see each other all the time. Unless they're forced, who would want to offend someone?" Guo Tianxu shook his head.
"Actually, you're more experienced than me in dealing with this kind of thing. You should already have an idea, right?" Han Bin smiled.
Guo Tianxu smiled. From the injuries of the boy's father, it had already become a criminal case. It could be handed over to the criminal police.
Since he couldn't find the suspect, he would let the criminal police handle it.
Everyone had their own specialties.
Knock, knock, knock … At that moment, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"Sheriff, the old lady has brought her daughter-in-law and grandson here. They're arguing with the car owner's family in the hall again. You should go and take a look."
"What are you guys doing? You can't even handle such a small matter." Guo Tianxu complained, but he still hurried to the main hall.
He had seen this old lady before. She was also a person who refused to be taken advantage of. If the two sides were to really fight, he would be the one in trouble.
Han Bin also walked into the hall and saw a gray-haired old lady sitting on the ground, crying.
"Aiyo, my son, why are you so pitiful!"
Beside them stood a mother and son. The mother's face was dark as she glared fiercely at the family members of the car owners. The child was only five or six years old and was holding a Piggy Man toy in his hand.
"Alright, stop shouting. Tell me what you want to say," Guo Tianxu said with a straight face.
"You police have to give me an explanation. My son is seriously injured and hospitalized. No one is taking care of him yet," the old lady shouted.
"Since no one is taking care of him, why aren't your family of three going back to the hospital to take care of him? Why are you still here?" Guo Tianxu asked.
"Our family has no money. We can't afford the medical fees. We haven't had the surgery yet. I came to the police station this time to ask the murderer to pay for my son's treatment," the old lady shouted.
"This matter hasn't been investigated clearly. Who will pay for you first? Don't take money too seriously. Hurry up and treat your son. If it's really delayed, you'll regret it for the rest of your life," Guo Tianxu advised.
"Let them pay for me first," the old lady shouted, pointing at the family members of the car owners.
"Old thing, you've gone crazy thinking about money. What did you say when you scratched our car? Didn't you say that you don't have money and you only have your life? Why do you want us to pay for it now?"
"That's right. If you want us to pay for the medical fees, then give us the repair fee first."
"Bah, the older you get, the more shameless you are."
The family members of the car owners scolded.
The old lady was also anxious. "You bunch of heartless people. This is the same thing. The child is so young, what does he know? Why do you have to lower yourself to his level?"
"The child is not sensible. You adults should pay for it."
"Why? The car was not scratched by the adults." The old lady snorted.
"You, scratching someone else's car is reasonable." A family member of the car owner became angrier as he listened.
"A few days ago, my grandson also rowed a car. The owner of the car was very sensible and didn't say anything about money. Look at you guys again. You're all in the eye of money, but you still care about it like a child. Why is the gap between people so big?" The old lady spat.
Han Bin had been listening by the side. He interrupted and asked, "What did you just say? Your grandson scratched someone else's car before?"
"What's wrong with scratching? The owner is a civilized person. Not only did he not want us to pay for it, but he also gave my grandson 100 yuan." The old lady snorted.
Han Bin thought it was interesting that there were such 'kind' people in this day and age. However, this old lady didn't look like a reasonable person. Han Bin didn't completely believe her words. He squatted down and said to the child next to him, "Little friend, did you scratch those cars in the community?"
The little boy nodded.
"Why did you paddle a car?" Han Bin asked.
The child looked down at Pigman. "I want to buy a new toy."
Han Bin heard the hidden meaning and frowned. "Who told you that you can buy a toy by paddling a car?"
"The last time I scratched a car, the owner uncle gave me a lollipop and gave me 100 yuan to buy this Pigman toy. I still want more toys." The little boy seemed to know that he had made a mistake. He was a little timid, but when it came to toys, he showed some excitement.
Guo Tianxu also felt that something was wrong. He called the old lady to the interrogation room to make a statement. Only then did he understand the cause and effect.
Han Bin learned about the incident and secretly remembered Brother Liao's name.
This man called Brother Liao seemed to be a generous and kind-hearted person, but in Han Bin's eyes, he was a person who harbored evil intentions.
A truly generous person might not ask for the little boy's car repair fee, but he would never encourage the little boy to paddle a car. The most correct way would be to reprimand the little boy and tell him that it was wrong to paddle a car.
However, Brother Liao used an encouraging method to make the little boy mistakenly think that there was no harm in paddling a car. He could also get money and toys, creating a wrong guidance for the little boy.
Of course, Brother Liao didn't break the law. Even if the police found him, he could say that he was doing a good deed.
After all, it was just his method that was wrong. No one could prove that he didn't know how to educate children or had other motives.
As long as he didn't break the law, the police couldn't do anything to him.
Brother Liao's behavior couldn't be considered as instigating. At most, he used an obscure method to leave a seed in the little boy's heart.
However, what really made this seed grow was the little boy's family environment.
When the little boy did something wrong, his grandmother and parents not only didn't help him correct it, but also told him that it was wrong. Instead, they covered up for him and looked at the matter with an indifferent attitude.
This kind of soil was the most suitable for breeding seeds with evil intentions.
From the behavior of the little boy's grandmother and father, this family was somewhat unreasonable. They only took advantage of others and refused to suffer losses. This kind of family environment was the root cause of the little boy's mistake.
And that Brother Liao was the direct cause.
Han Bin felt that this case was very educational. If this little boy continued to grow up in this kind of family, without the right values and education, there was a high possibility that he would end up in prison.
As for how this case would end in the future, it was none of Han Bin's business.
Han Bin felt that he should pay more attention to that Brother Liao.
He was definitely a troublemaker.
